Hurley, whose boyfriend is Indian maverick Arun Nayar, reportedly has her eye on a role in a movie with Om Puri, one of India's most famous actors.

The untitled movie will be filmed in Scotland but will apparently be Bollywood through and through.

Should do wonders for her career.

JUVENILE DELINQUENT?

Rapper Juvenile (of "Back That Azz Up" fame) still is facing an arrest warrant in Georgia on child abandonment charges.

Local sheriff's deputies say the multi-platinum artist (real name: Terius Gray) has failed to provide financial support for a 6-month-old daughter. They issued an arrest warrant in November when he failed to show up for a court hearing. Juvenile's legal team said it is because the rapper is not the baby girl's father.

"To suggest he is a deadbeat dad couldn't be further from the truth," said Tim Fry, one of Juvenile's lawyers.

But deputies say they now have paternity test results to prove him wrong.

FURRY FRIEND: Arnold Schwarzenegger has the attention of California's ferrets.

Some ferret owners in the state believe the new governor, who worked on screen with a ferret in "Kindergarten Cop," will sign legislation legalizing the animals.

"We have an inequity here, and this man is sensitive to that kind of thing," said Jeanne Carley, founder of Californians for Ferret Legalization. "The state wildlife agency doesn't regulate cats and dogs, so why should it regulate ferrets?"

For now, the Governator's been busy with little issues such as California's multibillion-dollar budget mess and scrounging up relief after devastating wildfires and a recent earthquake.

NAME GAME: Madonna and David Beckham have done it, so why not Robbie Williams?

The British pop star has trademarked his own name to prevent people from cashing in on that, uh, gold mine. Williams' latest DVD boasts, "Robbie Williams is the trademark of Robert Williams."

King of talk

Michael Jackson told CBS' "60 Minutes" that he still thinks it's OK to sleep with children but that he would never harm them.

Accused of child molestation, Jackson denied the charges against him during an interview with Ed Bradley that aired Sunday. Asked by Bradley if it was still acceptable to sleep with children given the charges against him, Jackson answered, "Of course."

"Why not?" he said. "If you're going to be a pedophile, if you're going to be Jack the Ripper, if you're going to be a murderer, it's not a good idea. That I am not."

"Before I would hurt a child, I would slit my wrists," Jackson also said.

Meanwhile, CBS announced Friday that it was rescheduling a Jackson concert special that the network postponed last month when the charges surfaced. Bradley had been pursuing an interview with Jackson even before the charges were filed, but the timing of CBS' announcement raised eyebrows about whether the concert was used to convince Jackson to do the big-ratings interview.
